Golden Gate Jumper

This clip is a comedy bit from the Dogme comedy "Camera - Dogme #15" DVD   But sorry, no one dies in this clip.  That's me behind the camera pretending to jump. THIS IS NOT A SUICIDE VIDEO. I was trying to think of some funny ways that people use their cameras - (the film is about a camera that gets stolen and all the adventures it goes on).  "If you film it I can pay off all my debts" sounds about as ridiculous as its meant to sound.  Actually I hated standing on the bridge. Makes me nervous. If you're thinking of jumping off the bridge go directly to India. You will find so many people who are happy with their lives, or find so much poverty and people that you can help, that you will forget what the heck you thought you were doing. Also please check into the research by the U of Wisc. Richard Davidson's pioneering work on how meditation can cure depression - he uses "tonglen" - if you learn how to practice this meditation you will not only heal others, but you will cure your depression - it actually changes the amygdala in the brain - the source of depression. People who are suicidal are depressed - drugs help some, harm others - but meditation done every day can cure those who are depressed. What the harm in trying? Meanwhile, I've written a book based on my doc about the Afterlife - it's called "Flipside: A Tourist's Guide to the Afterlife" and its on Amazon. If you know someone who is depressed, suicidal, it might help. There's a clip from the doc on the page "what is life between life hypnotherapy?"
